Body Glove consistently delivers exceptional experiences on the water, with their crews earning particularly high praise from guests. Staff members like Kai and Kyler get called out by name for being knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone has a great time. The team's warmth and professionalism shine through across both snorkeling adventures and sunset dinner cruises. The food quality surprises people in the best way, with generous portions and tasty options whether you're out for a daytime snorkel or evening sail. Guests love the educational component too, especially the historical commentary about the islands from the ocean perspective. Many visitors report seeing spinner dolphins and abundant marine life during their trips. Several reviewers mention returning for multiple cruises, which speaks volumes about the consistent quality. One thoughtful tip: consider taking Dramamine if you're prone to seasickness.
It was spectacular!! A must do when staying in Kona. The food was actually really good and for the first half of the 3-hour tour we learned the history of the coast mixed in with live music. The weather (May) was awesome and the sunset…it’ll take your breath away watching it from the sea! It was fun, and a wonderful way to experience Hawaii!
